Halcyon Yachts Reviews 

Halcyon Yachts care about their crew, they've partnered with Ardent Training to give their crews discounts on RYA theory courses. They have an excellent career development scheme ensuring they are providing the very best delivery crews.

I have just completed passage /delivery trip of my new boat a Vancouver 32Hamnavoe from Falmouth to Courtmacsherry west cork with the help of a delivery skipper from Halcyon Yachts called Any Barker.You couldnt meet a nicer guy who gelled with my crew and for whom nothing was a problem that couldn’t be sorted quietly with no fuss he even stayed on for the night in Cork to sample the local Guinness!! I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anybody and would hope to have him on board my boat in future.Also many thanks to Pete and Minke back at base FergusDunlea Clontarf Dublin Ireland

Thanks for all your help, the whole delivery went very smoothly and relieved what would otherwise have been a very stressful situation for us. We will certainly be in touch again should we ever need delivery services again.

Great work guys - not the easiest mission: A 46 year old yacht that had to come back 450 nmiles, in a pandemic, from a country not allowing UK nationals IN…. And a boat bought unseen by the new owners.. what could go wrong??

But you did it and we are so thrilled with Ithaka. Big thanks also to the Brilliant skipper Ron (yes plenty of weather on the voyage) and the marvellous crew.

I must pass on my thanks and give a glowing recommendation to Halcyon Yacht Deliveries who have just brought my Grenadier back to the UK from the Netherlands. We weren't allowed to fetch her ourselves due to the Dutch and English covid rules, but Halcyon managed to find a dual nationality skipper who could make the crossing. Having never used a delivery firm before I was quite skeptical, especially as our boat is old and quite quirky, but the skipper took two days extra to familiarize himself with the boat (at his cost) and the whole trip went like a dream. The boat was even washed and tidied after 6 months ashore. The price was fantastic. I would definitely use them again.

Due to ill health we needed to move our Beneteau 423 from Preveza, Greece to Dover which is our our local home port. Halcyon Yachts agreed to take on the delivery, estimated a delivery time of 27 days and set out on 20th August 2020. Andreas, the skipper was very aware of the likely implications of Covid when it came to stopping off points and made proper provisions. Unfortunately they did encounter some fuel problems on the trip and managed to effectively overcome these. The delivery was made safely, only taking one extra day due to the fuel problems, and the yacht was delivered safely to her mooring in Dover. We had good contact with the crew throughout the trip and everything was done to a high professional standard for which we are very grateful. Thank you Halcyon!

Halcyon Yachts provided a great service during challenging times, navigating Covid and storms during the passage between Truro and Poole with great professional confidence. Very impressive all round.

We used Halcyon Yachts who provided a skipper with two crew members to deliver our yacht from Madeira to Dover. The company was very helpful and arranged the delivery in a short period of time which enabled the boat to be brought back before too much uncertainty with the weather crossing Biscay. The skipper kept us informed of his progress and even sent some photos and short video clips. The whole delivery experience was very professional and we felt confident that our yacht was in safe hands. If the need arose, we would certainly use Halcyon Yachts again.

Excellent services as always .

I've enjoyed crewing for Halcyon on several occasions. The skippers were very knowledgable and took excellent care. Also the management were very responsive and attentive. Highly recommended as an employer and a service in general!

Despite the extreme winter conditions the competent Crew with skipper Steve brought the yacht to its destination safely and undamaged. Also a friendly and communicative office at any time before and during the transfer.
Would fall back on Halycons anytime. I would also like to take these likeable and experienced skipper on board to support me on an extended holiday Trip.
Thanks Steve, crew and Pete!!

I needed a delivery at short notice, the Halcyon Yachts responded well, had a crew within a week for trip back from Portugal to the UK in Sept 2019. The trip was hard and in-spite of a few mechanical problems, the team persisted, used their imagination to secure & implement solutions without much delay and successfully delivered the yacht safely to our home port in Suffolk.

Exemplary service by amazing people at a good price. Look no further!

We engaged Halcyon Yachts for delivering our sailing yacht, Iduna II, from Aprilia Marritima, Lignano, Italy, north Adriatic, to our home at Kusadasi, Turkey. We as owners were crew and received tuition to get to our next qualification level.
Nothing but praise for Halcyon Yachts. Totally recommend them without hesitation.

Professional, excellent customer service and great follow up.

Impeccable and friendly service!
Thank you...

Very professional, safe and looked after my boat. Wouldn’t hesitate recommending them.
